Fantastic. We stayed in room 5 which had fabulous views of the mountains and we could see the sea in the distance. Beyond our expectations and even better than the photos. Great shower, hairdryer and washing machine. Absolutely recommend. Gavi and Stacey are also fantastic and always available. Gave us lots of help when we asked. Stay here!

In quite a beautiful location and tucked away down a very bumpy and rutted track which deters non-residents, this was an ideal hideaway for a quiet vacation. Very friendly welcome, individual villas with both air-conditioning and four-poster beds with mosquito nets (and the pleasant quirkiness of a shower in an outdoor courtyard), we felt immediately at home. We loved it.

A wonderful stay at the Marigold Palms! Ann was lovely and helpful, giving us advice on places to visit while there.
The view from the spotlessly clean room over the bay is fantastic. The hotel is above the bay, walkable up from the bay seafront. There’s a good restaurant opposite the hotel if it rains and you don’t fancy the walk.
Would recommend!
